Full description
The driver will pick you up at your hotel on time. After half an hour on tour we´ll have a stop at the Trengereid lookout and Bakery. Here you find also public toilets. The next stop will be the Steinsdalsfossen waterfall. You can walk along the back of this waterfall without getting wet. It is one of the most visited waterfalls in Norway.
At about 12:00 we will arrive at Spildegarden Sider Farm in Øystese from where you have a spectacular view over the Hardanger Fjord. Here we will have our lunch break. First there is a short guided tour of the farm and afterwards we go to dining room which is extremely cozy with a fireplace. For lunch there is a traditional soup with local food as well as apple pie, coffee/tea, a glass of apple juice and a glass of apple sider. We stay here for just an hour and continue on our way at around 13:00.
After a drive of about 40 minutes, always along the Hardangerfjord, we reach the ferry in Kvandal. The ferry departs at 2 p.m., the crossing takes only 20 minutes.
On arrival in Utne, we head straight to the historic Hotel Utne, waffles and a café are already waiting for us. Located just a few steps from Ferry dock, Norway's oldest preserved wooden hotel offers 17 individually designed rooms and a charming atmosphere for authentic experiences. The location by the fjord is breathtaking and the hotel's gardens are beautiful. A real gem!
The route from Utne to Jondal is a scenic drive along the Hardangerfjord on road 550. The distance between the two towns is about 36 km and the drive takes about 35 minutes. Along the way we can enjoy the beautiful scenery and admire the orchards that are characteristic of the region. This trip is highly recommended for anyone who wants to explore Norway's beautiful nature. We will make photo stops along the way as often as weather and time permit.
The ferry from Jondal to Tørvikbygd departs at 15:20 on the dot. We cross the main arm of the Hardangerfjord here. There are toilets and a self-service café on the ferry. You can also go to the upper car deck and take photos from there. The landscape is stunning. The crossing only takes 20 minutes.
At 15:40 the ferry docks in Tørvikbygd. From here, we make our way directly to Bergen.
The drive back to Bergen takes about an hour and a half. Arrival at your Hotel in Bergen shortly after 17 p.m. So you still have enough time to find a suitable restaurant for dinner.
